I've also respected Hardwick in his time at the Tigers. I also try hard not to let past experiences cloud judgements on players and coaches character. But bringing up something from 20 years ago? The ONE part of that triumphant game and season from the Bombers that they should be trying their hardest to suppress and forget? Not on. The guy is clearly just defending his player, sure he's sacrificing his own reputation but that's his choice.

Would definitely buy the T-shirt!

The Higgins idea got floated around here either last year or the year before. I don't hate the idea but just can't see it being worthwhile.

Still gotta play our part though, no matter what.

Makes you wonder what kind of training they were doing to ping the hammy that bad.

A list depth player and that's about it. Can do a job for you but would only expect to see him if we get hit with injuries.

There's no doubt Aaron has seen and lived through more than most people his age. A true bloke.

I'm along these lines of thinking. Along with Geelong there might be a few other clubs interested so we should get something decent in return.

Some real watered down stuff there..

The AFL condones punching and gut punching. They can say all they like but this is the truth, it's all well and good to stamp out little shoves and bad sportsmanship but when it comes to punches they are 'soft as butter'.

Actually did not see that news about the delayed start until now so that does change a few things yeah. I'd say at this stage everything is on the table. Maybe even more games with shorter quarters, who knows..

There we go!

Yeah that's right, in the club polo and everything. Was a good touch!

Some of the ideas lately around this are ridiculous. I heard Andy Maher and Bob Murphy discussing having the frenzy again next year because you 'really only need 10,000 people to make it a great atmosphere'. Might be true but gee makes the building big stadiums idea a solid fiscal investment doesn't it?

I liked this too, kudos to the broadcast for that.

There's really no way to do any business in this trade period other than shopping around one of the value players. I know the instinct is to hang on to everyone and keep a list together but this isn't a case of packaging up Matty Warnock, Tom Bugg and Ben Kennedy for a 1st rounder. Make the bold calls or be happy with what we have.

I think this game was more a case of serving up some unpredictability. The chances are opposition would work us out after a few games of it. Yeah we might have to mix up the way we go about centre bounces but you'd be crazy to give up a hit out specialist like Max, just find a way to use it better.

Grundy has had like 2 decent games since the restart?

Ouch

Played a good game, back to his surgeon best.

Cheers SWYL. Unfortunately I missed out on the Windy Hill era, caught plenty of the Vic Park one though unfortunately!

It gets scarier every time I see it.

Needs to borrow some peroxide off Salem and he'll be In with a shot.

You'd take this every weekend!

Literally just heard about this on SEN that is absolutely insane. Rossi understandably shaken up.
